entry for bad design awards

Ben's umbrella entry was ok. But I think this out-does it.


My entry is the floppy handle you find on buses. The chap above is clearly mocking the floppy handle by wearing a silly hat and chastising it with a toy microphone. I don't blame him.

This morning I hung onto one for dear life whilst being hurled around Vauxhall like a Swing Ball. Why is the handle floppy? Why hold onto something unstable to stabilise yourself?? "OK everyone, this is going to be a wild ride, strap yourself in or grab a blancmange." I think not.
